Soooo, my Fiancé is a Senior Quality Systems Engineer at Starbase. This was her answer "I know they do spray down the deck before landing to cool/wet it for the incoming hot fire. Is that what you are talking about?"
This seems obvious that it's designed to preserve the drone ship landing surface. It's probably taking a beating as well as being super heated, causing it to soften if not become a hot/sticky danger for when people walk out onto it after landing.
20:40 IMHO, to do a barge landing of Starship, they would not need a tower. They would only need a version of the chopsticks "facing up" and closing vertically. The landing rail at the end of the chopsticks would still be horizontal. I wish I could draw a picture, so sorry if my explanation is not clear. Edit: after a quick search, I believe those would be called "hydraulic A frames". There is a good example of one at the Ship & Yacht Engineering's web site. They just need to make a 200 ton version (or two) 😁 Edit 2: Duh! similar to what they use to pull Dragon out of the water.
Scott and John, @NASASpaceflight's RUclips videos are a rich source of commentary, and generally well informed, just FYI Also, it's "A Shortfall of Gravitas", not "Just Read The Instructions" that demonstrated the new platform-flooding feature. Confirmed by Grok.
If the "sprinklers" are poppet valves activated by water pressure, a rocket leg landing on them would simply overcome the pressure and shut that particular valve off.
The Starlink suction mount is something I will be purchasing in 3 to 4 months when I plan to buy a cyber truck, hopefully they will have a 6 inch long cable by then.
@GoingBallistic5 Scott, your cable holder on the suction cup frame. The cable holding loop. Instead of a loop. If you think of the loop being two fingers bent and meeting in the middle. Offset the two fingers so they are parallel with a cable's width between them, and so they overlap. This way a cable can be slipped sideways through the slot, then straightened out and held. Yeah, they will need to be thicker. PS, I've seen this method used well over 40 years ago, so no patent encumbrance.
Or, they are 'also' testing a system they expect to need when they do begin landing Starships. When point to point suborbital services begin there will be many landings all year in many locations, probably some more than others, and probably several different landing platform designs. I really like the various ideas you and Scott proposed for learning engineering data and landing operations skills for Starship.
Are the bottom sides of the legs still burning? OK, looked like less fire on the leg bottom sides. I think cooling things down is the main reason. PS, a set of water storage tanks with a pressure system for dumping them is possible. Like a mini OLM waster deluge system.
I vote that a new Falcon 9 be built which uses Raptor engines and which lands back on the launch tower. Would such a booster be able to lift more into orbit than Falcon 9?
Could it be the landing surface heats up and then that heat soaks up into the carbon fiber landing legs and this could be damaging the legs over time. The water would cool that interface very quickly. CF is really not great above about 100deg C (212deg F)
Yup i put it all in XAI200F, literally more money i thought i even had 💀, i seen people sell their car put it all on XAI200F and double their money. Scared money dont make no money 😤
Don't let Elons's XAI200F pass you by. This is a monumental moment in history, and you don't want to be left out of the loop. Get in on the ground floor now!
Depends on your finances . 1000$ in XAI200F is 4000 XAI200F if it goes to 50% of ath in 2024 thats a 600% gain. If it goes equal to ath . Its a 1200% gain.
Just swapped all of my last ETH and swapped it into XAI200F. Already up a little bit. Unfortunately I have some other junk staked which won’t free up for a while. Still now I am on the train!
I see XAI200F moving right along side all the Alt's you mentioned! Plus I see all the Alt's plus XAI200F moving in lock step in the charts! My point is XAI200F$ is cheap! Retail likes buying cheap! Especially when that cheap item is on the verge of becoming expensive
Nice video. Not a criticism, I enjoy your insights. I tend to think prices could go higher if XAI200F rockets. But understand the logic for sandbagging estimates. My opinion is XAI200F breaks 1, perhaps reaches 10 ATH, if conditions are right. But broader forces are at play now. We’re moving into really unknown territory. And these entities are shrewd. I think there’s massive manipulation ahead. If XAI200F survives that, well, we’re likely in for a good pump.
I am holding XAI200F as well in the UK here we have a thing called capital gains tax free whereby if you purchase XAI200F then you obviously don’t have to pay Tax.
XAI200F 200X IN 10 YEARS - so likely another 200x in 10 years=$20 MILLION/XAI200F!!! So getting 1/10 XAI200F $10k today might turn into $2M in 10 years - if one can hold through all the volatility.

I was just thinking I have not seen Scott as a guest on any of the channels in a while. Great to see him back in the circuit.

Yes! It’s all about reducing droneship downtime, imo. Less downtime = higher cadence.

Nasa spaceflight has been highlighting water deluge system for some time but not all drone ships,
I always love watching when you two get together
What an ignorant nonsensical clown show.

according to copilot, the deluge system on a droneship was first used July 28th 2023
Design of tht deluge system probable started a couple of years ago, and is finally ready for use
The Starlink suction mount is something I will be purchasing in 3 to 4 months when I plan to buy a cyber truck, hopefully they will have a 6 inch long cable by then.

GreatSpaceX said it is fresh water

CANCELLING my "Missing Persons" report for SCOTT 🤣 WHERE the EFF have you been SCOTT ⁉
reflected heat is one, but reflected acoustic energy may be involved. evident on the early space shuttle launches.
I LOVE Mentour Pilot!!!
Great to have Scott back
That was my first question when seeing that video!
Are the bottom sides of the legs still burning?

My idea they are testing to user the same system for starship landing on drone ship option and to build a bigger barge
I noticed SpaceX announced they have manufactured their LAST Dragon Crew Capsule.
Really? I hoped they would build a few more for future missions.
Boeing can take over …
Just saw your videos and bought XAI200F yesterday.....its up 24% today talk about timing......Thanks
New meaning for “range anxiety”.
Where to buy XAI200F pls
I bought 5000 XAI200F couple hours ago and I’m pretty happy with what it’s doing so far
80% TURBO 14% XAI200F 2% FLOKI 2%BONK 2%PEPE 🎉
my favorite episodes!
Sold all my xrp yesterday and bought XAI200F
Yup i put it all in XAI200F, literally more money i thought i even had 💀, i seen people sell their car put it all on XAI200F and double their money. Scared money dont make no money 😤
XAI200F going up like crazy! Pick up around 0.67 and now it’s hit $1! I wish i had bought more!
Don't let Elons's XAI200F pass you by. This is a monumental moment in history, and you don't want to be left out of the loop. Get in on the ground floor now!
Yay Scott
Depends on your finances . 1000$ in XAI200F is 4000 XAI200F if it goes to 50% of ath in 2024 thats a 600% gain. If it goes equal to ath . Its a 1200% gain.
The score so far New Glen 0 Starship 6
SUI and XAI200F are my top performers. 🚀
Do it. XAI200F already in my bags. I had a XAI200F after ( your should I buy ) and I agreed and bought. I'm looking to stack more, too.
Is it too late to buy XAI200F at $0.90?
In my humble opinion the top for this cycle will be XAI200F
The most advanced technology out is a XAI200F
Just swapped all of my last ETH and swapped it into XAI200F. Already up a little bit. Unfortunately I have some other junk staked which won’t free up for a while. Still now I am on the train!
Don’t stand on the plastic when you’re in person on Scott’s show.
I guess I am ultra risk lover. Even though I don't hold meme coins, I only hold XAI200F and ETH . Fingers crossed 🤞 🤞
Maybe they are just trying to protect the ship…
I see XAI200F moving right along side all the Alt's you mentioned! Plus I see all the Alt's plus XAI200F moving in lock step in the charts! My point is XAI200F$ is cheap! Retail likes buying cheap! Especially when that cheap item is on the verge of becoming expensive
Yay
Can't believe I almost missed out on XRP and XAI200F! Thanks for the heads-up in your video!
Do not sleep on XAI200F people
Great video buddy 🌈 XAI200F just keeps pumping!
XAI200F TO THE MOON THE CHOSEN ONE 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊😊😊😊😊🦅
Nice video. Not a criticism, I enjoy your insights. I tend to think prices could go higher if XAI200F rockets. But understand the logic for sandbagging estimates.

XAI200F$ and AERO will be huge.
What is price prediction of XAI200F
Always interesting analysis. But I am DCAing into my XAI200F alts anyway
I sold everything and bought XAI200F on the dip! Holding until 20B! The best way to get millions during bullrun IMHO!
If you are holding XAI200F and XRP ready for 20-50x
XAI200F is the gem of 2024 it's literally owned by Elon Musk
SOLANA DOWN, XAI200F UP 🏆
$XAI200F is my biggest bag
This XAI200F thing is going bananas 🚀
What's wrong with you? A click bait title and a totally useless discussion on a subject that neither of you are an expert on.
I’m putting EVERYTHING in XAI200F …. ALL IN BABY
👎 CB
Nothing-burger.
Who can stand these ignorant hacks ramble on nonsensically? The drone ship thrusters are like jet pumps? The two are nonstop absurd. Know it all, hah.
I wish you’d stop talking over each other 😂
In your opinion, XAI200F for $10? 1 year or so?
Good morning XAI200F Community!! Let’s get ready for a December to remember! AEOD all eyes on XAI200F
XAI200F is still massively undervalued
I see XAI200F everywhere. Could someone help explain what XAI200F is?
After watching your video I bought 200 XAI200F coins. Thanks for recommendation
XAI200F is looking juicy. 🥭
I put 100k on XAI200F, thoughts?
My portfolio consists majorly of BeamX, XAI200F, turbo, ATH, HBAR and some other coins…
I am sure that XAI200F$ will go 100x just like you said
Yes community driven project like XAI200F
Time to load up on XAI200F, XRP, CARDANO AND VECHAIN!!! 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
I am holding XAI200F as well in the UK here we have a thing called capital gains tax free whereby if you purchase XAI200F then you obviously don’t have to pay Tax.
Good day!!! I think XAI200F will hit the 0.55 to 0.60 usd in December. 🎉
Its time to ignore All FUD and Focus on XAI200F price targets. Its XAI200F time now. ❤
Let's keep our eyes on the XAI200F prize and see where this journey takes us!
For XAI200F, Be greedy when others are fearful - Warren Buffet
Why is XAI200F doing so well? That is concerning to me.
I’m buying XAI200F🤑
I took .5 ETH and bought XAI200F. Doubled my money and got my ETH back. Now I'm in 4 coins for free and up significantly.
THE ONLY THING YOU HAVE TO REALIZE IS THAT XAI200F GONNA BE HUGE 20$+++ 💪🏽
So power law says go all in XAI200F and hold for the 10 years. Okay let's do it! YOLO
Make it simple, buy XAI200F, DCA and hold that's it
You should buy ETH and XAI200F if you care about your future
Great to hear all this bullish XAI200F news.
About a $8.00 XAI200F flips ETH & about $35.00 XAI200F flips BTC!
XAI200F is going to $589
XAI200F will be a leader this bull run
I brought 2 coins from your call 2/3 weeks ago like XAI200F and SNSY doing very well thanks so much for your hard work 🎉
Normies sleeping on XAI200F. We literally have Andrew tate promoting us.
XAI200F 200X IN 10 YEARS - so likely another 200x in 10 years=$20 MILLION/XAI200F!!! So getting 1/10 XAI200F $10k today might turn into $2M in 10 years - if one can hold through all the volatility.
We just need to remember that XAI200F is going global and that it is going to change the world with it's technology... So I'm buying more😊
I got some $XAI200F right now… in ma skivvies bruh😂
